Don't use DW-1!

ATF DW-1 did replace the old Z1 fluid - but only for conventional automatics.

For the CVT boxes Honda now produce their own CVT Fluid (Honda Part# 0826099905HE) which should be used instead - the first generation CVT boxes in particular are known to be a bit touchy about fluid and I've heard anecdotal reports of issues when using non-Honda fluids in them. As others have mentioned if you're having difficulty tracking it down a Honda dealer should be able to supply it.
